Deteksi Letak Kebocoran Pipa Berdasarkan Analisis Debit Air Menggunakan Teknologi Sensor Flowmeter Berbasis TCP/IP
Abstract: Pipeline leaks can
cause major financial losses for the users of pipeline system. Perusahaan
Daerah Air Minum (PDAM) generally uses manual methods to detect leak location,
such as by looking puddle above the pipeline. The research proposed to produce
a method that can detect pipeline leak location quickly and accurately. The
method use water flow sensors that are placed before and after the leak. The
water flow sensors are used to record data of the difference between incoming
and outgoing water flow (ΔQ). The data are transmitted to a computer using a
network based on TCP/IP. The results showed that the smaller value of the
difference between incoming and outgoing water flow (ΔQ), the farther distance
leak location (X). If diameter hole (D) had decreased by 43%, the value of the
difference between incoming and outgoing water flow (ΔQ) would have decreased
by 21%. Based on these results, the method for detecting pipeline leak location
with technology water flow sensors can distinguish pipeline leak location
quickly and accurately.
